Overview
Welcome to Castle Tam. We're in the heart of lively, upscale San Pedro, only 400 meters from the University of Costa Rica and the student nightlife of Calle de la Amargura. Our newly renovated hostel is 10 minutes by bus from downtown San Jose and walking distance from San Pedro Mall, three supermarkets as well as many restaurants and bars.
Our 14 rooms are a mix of dormitories and private rooms with WiFi all throughout the hostel. We have two full kitchens with plenty of fridge space for your food. If you don’t like to cook there is also front door delivery service from nearby restaurants. You can hang out with fellow travelers in the interior courtyard, watch students pass by on the outside terrace or if you just want to chill enjoy one of our two TV rooms. No laptop? No problem. We also have three Internet connected PCs so you can upload all of your photos from the beach.
San Pedro is a safe, stylish neighborhood in San Jose so we enjoy taking our guests out for movie nights, skating, city walks and pub crawls on Calle de la Amargura. The University District is close enough to ensure there are always activities going on but with the hostel being a few blocks from the main highway you can also get a quiet night’s rest.
Accommodation Information
Castle Tam Hostel has 14 rooms with a mixture of privates and dorms. We can easily change a private room into a dorm or the other way around based on guests' needs. Private rooms can be either a single queen bed or two twin beds, just tell us what you need ahead of time and we will do our best to accommodate you. All beds are metal and new so no annoying creaking from wood beds. Bed sheets and linen are provided and all bathrooms have 24 hour hot showers. Security lockers are also available.
Location Information
Castle Tam Hostel is located near the University District and the Calle de la Amargura. By day take advantage of the student oriented cheaper prices for lunch and at night hit up one of the many bars all along the Calle. Not interested in the bar scene? Two malls are located within four blocks and on Wednesdays brand new movies are only $2. If you want to head downtown the bus stop is only two blocks away. If you are looking to stay in for the night we do have cable television, a courtyard for socializing and WiFi in every room. Although the hostel is only blocks from the bars and restaurants because it is located south of the main highway it also offers an opportunity to have a good nights sleep.
